SCOTTSDALE, AZ
Brand Vending Products is offering an extension of its popular Plastic Rings line and a Poker Mix that has all the key ingredients to appeal to young consumers interested in the card-game craze.
The Plastic Rings 2 mix is comprised of more than 20 unique designs of rings. Every ring is made of thick acrylic, with no thin rubber rings used to fill out the mix. Each plastic ring is hand painted with various bold and brightly colored designs and words; they are vended through 1.1-in. capsules. The rings are a current hot seller for Brand, with many operators reordering by the case instead of by the box, it is reported.
“The rings are the best 1-in. item since the 1.1-in. bears,” company officials declared. “They are now neck-and-neck on reorders and are just not slowing down. Rings and bears are simply the best 1.1-in. product out there.” Plastic Rings are available in round capsules, which helps increase their visibility; the capsules are also sturdy and will not come apart and jam machines. This enables operators to switch product from ball gum to capsules without changing the gum wheel.
Brand’s Poker Mix lets bulk operators cash in on the resurging popularity of this card game and the themes associated with it. Among the jewelry items included are necklaces and bracelets with blinky and real metal chains. An authentic, clay Las Vegas-style poker chip is another appealing draw. The creative display card is designed to attract both young and mature customers to machines.
In a further show of appreciation to its customers, on select merchandise Brand is doubling points earned toward its rewards program, which ends Dec. 31. The Brand Rewards Program assigns points for every dollar spent on its large assortment of merchandise; those points can be redeemed for an array of consumer goods, travel and entertainment. Company officials reported that since the program began, operators have been reordering the most popular temporary tattoos and other best-selling merchandise with an eye toward redeeming points for such items as fishing rods, X-boxes and digital cameras.
